CDT Update/Download Site
latest CDT downloads for Eclipse 3.0.x

Welcome to the CDT new release update site.

The contents of this site may only be used with Eclipse 3.0.x. Unfortunately, the 1.x releases of the CDT will not work with Eclipse 3.0, thus we have a new separate release site.

Also, the CDT 2.x builds will not work with Eclipse 3.1. For new CDT 3.0 builds that will work with Eclipse 3.1, please visit our weekly build site.

For more information see http://www.eclipse.org/cdt.

There are two ways to install the CDT: this update site, or the old-fashioned way using zip files.

Installing from the Update Site

To install CDT from the update site, in the Help menu select Software Updates and then Find and Install, Select Search for new features to install and click Next. Click New Remote Site to add an update site with the URL:

        http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/new

Select the appropriate CDT entry and click next to show the list of features for this release. The features for the CDT have been simplified and now only defines two features, the CDT runtime and the CDT SDK. The SDK feature is a superset of the CDT runtime with the addition of the CDT source. Place a check mark next to the desired entry and click through the rest of the pages to get the install started. After the install is completed, please make sure you accept the workbench restart.

Installing from a zip file

For those interested in the zip file distribution of the CDT select the appropriate release:

Language Packs

IBM has contributed translations of the Eclipse Tools Project, CDT.

The language pack is distributed as a feature which you can install by downloading the zip file, unzipping it into your Eclipse directory and restarting Eclipse. This language pack contains translations for German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazil), Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese.

These translations are based on the CDT 2.0.2 build but should work on any build after 2.0.2. If new strings are added to CDT after 2.0.2, they will not show up as translated in the 2.0.x stream when you install this language pack.
